Description

Located in a highly desirable development with views across the picturesque Astbury Mere, this impressive four-bedroom detached executive residence delivers generous and adaptable accommodation arranged over three thoughtfully designed levels. Built in 2020, the home occupies an enviable plot with uninterrupted outlooks, features premium finishes throughout, and benefits from granted planning consent for a two-storey extension.
A spacious entrance hallway sets the tone, leading through to a light-filled lounge and an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind. This standout area is fitted with high-spec integrated appliances and enhanced by elegant bi-fold doors that open directly onto the garden, effortlessly connecting indoor and outdoor spaces.
The ground floor is further complemented by a separate utility room, a flexible room suitable as a study or cloakroom, and a well-placed WC for added convenience.
On the first floor, there are three generously proportioned bedrooms. One enjoys the benefit of a private en-suite, while the remaining two are served by a stylish family bathroom.
Occupying the entire second floor, the principal bedroom provides a luxurious private space. This elegant space is enhanced by far-reaching views across the Mere, a thoughtfully designed walk-in dressing room with fitted storage, and a spacious en-suite bathroom complete with his and hers sinks. A truly luxury suite combining comfort, practicality, and stunning outlooks.
Externally, the property boasts a generous wrap-around garden. The side plot includes approved planning permission for a two-storey extension, offering excellent scope for future expansion or personalisation. A patio area directly outside the home provides ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining, while landscaped borders add colour and character with minimal maintenance required.

  • Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
  • Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
  • Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
  • Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
  • Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
  • Cashflow — Rent minus mortgage, 10% maintenance, £25/mo compliance. Assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term.
  • ROI — Annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).
